This patch updates qos-scripts to support fair traffic sharing using the SFQ with external classifiers method. It also corrects a bug in the unsupported ESFQ method already used by qos-scripts. (ESFQ: http://fatooh.org/esfq-2.6/ only updated to 2.6.24, it was switched to an SFQ patch after that and not updated since 2008)

A class can be forced to use SFQ, and an external classifier added like
this:

config class "Normal"
         option avgrate     10
         option priority    30
         option packetdelay 100
         option limitrate   94
#       option qdisc      "sfq perturb 2"
config class "Normal_up"
#       option filter   "protocol all flow hash keys src divisor 1024"
config class "Normal_down"
#       option filter   "protocol all flow hash keys dst divisor 1024"

Using these options, the user needs to load cls_flow before qos-scripts
starts.

This has been tested on r23914.
